Several smartphone brands in China are gearing up to launch new flagship phones in the final months of this year. When it comes to iQOO, the brand is expected to unveil the iQOO 13 in November. Unlike previous years, the company may not launch a Pro model, the iQOO 13 Pro, alongside the standard model. The key specifications of the iQOO 13 that have emerged on Weibo reveal that it will be a significant upgrade over the iQOO 12.
To recall, the iQOO 12 featured a 6.78-inch AMOLED panel that offered a 1.5K resolution, a 144Hz refresh rate, and an optical in-display fingerprint sensor. The device came with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset, 16 GB of RAM, 1 TB of storage, a 5,000mAh battery with 120W fast charging, and an IP64-rated chassis.

The iQOO 13 will have an “oversized” x-axis linear motor for an enhanced gaming experience. Although the leaker did not mention it, it is very likely to feature the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 chipset. It will have an improved IP68-rated chassis.
